Easter and April School Holidays HSC seminars

Book an Easter / April Holidays HSC Seminar

Jesse's HSC Study Bootcamp. 18th, 19th & 20th of April

	Get organised and reduce stress levels in Term 2 Term 2 is the most demanding term of the HSC with regard to student's assessment schedule as the school teacher will need to move quickly to complete the course before the Trial HSC exams and while the temptation to take it easy over the April holidays will be strong it is important that students continue work towards assessments in Term 2. Each of the workshops will give students the opportunity to make progress on their next assessment task in Term 2 and be at a significant advantage to other students.
	Build important study patterns to help prepare you for the Trials and Final HSC Exams Our workshops and HSC Study boot camp will help foster the development of self discipline and committed that is required from students in the July Holidays and October. The earlier that students start committing to study over the "holidays" the better. Students who use their time effectively in the April holidays will experience less stress in Terms 2 & 3 and will be in a much better position to use the July and October holidays most effectively because they will have already had the experience of sacrificing some of their "holidays" to get study done.
	Work with passionate and experienced HSC teachers The FergHSC teachers are passionate and committed to helping you achieve your HSC goals. All of our teachers are highly experienced teachers and tutors and know what is required to score top marks and rankings in each of their subject areas.
	Revise work completed in Term 4 and Term 1 Regular reviewing of work already completed in the HSC will dramatically increase a student’s ability to recall information in an exam situation. The FergHSC workshops provide an environment where students can reactivate their memory and be supported on topics or concepts that they have “forgotten”.
	Work with other HSC students who want to do well The FergHSC intensive tuition workshops give students the opportunity to meet students from other schools as well as share ideas and work in a small and collaborative environment. Each workshop is limited to only 8 students to ensure that our workshops are intimate and interactive.
	Great for regional NSW students If you live in regional NSW and would like your student to receive some HSC tutoring during the April holidays these workshops are a great way to complement our online HSC essay tuition service. We often have students from regional NSW who do a combination of holiday workshops and revision seminars (in the July & October Holidays) and during the term continue to receive online support from the same teacher they worked with at our workshops.
